Korean hostages - Not end of story

Now that the hostages have all returned to S Korea, it is time to settle scores and talk cock. One corner are the bravados, the never negotiate with the enemy heroes. They are now screaming at the S Korean govt for giving in and undermining their position. This will encourage more hostages to be taken. How they wish the S Koreans were killed as martyrs. Then they can called for more attacks against the kidnappers. The S Korean govt is a big let down. Whimps.
Another corner are the evangelists. They should be screaming 'Praise the Lord' for answering their prayers and returning the hostages safely. God has answered. And time to plan for more missions to save the Afghans. Their belief in the Almighty must have been strengthened. Some interviewed have expressed that the S Koreans were there to do a good deed and would likely be encouraged to do more good deeds.
And the S Korean govt is going to settle the scores for the foolishness of those involved in the mission. All will have to pay, at least financially, for the ruckus. It was humiliating for the govt to have to negotiate with the Talibans and to be blame for any failure to bring the hostages home safely.
Will the story be repeated again, by some other countries?

A busload of mainly young girls travelling with reckless abandonment in a terror infested war zone, not long after a terrified korean's head got chopped off on tv.. religion aside what could they possibly be thinking. A whole nation of proud and responsible people were affected becos of them.. proper people dun do things like that.. many things obviously seem out of place.

The Red Bean brand has been built over the last months of delivering a better blog for the people. Despite the occasionally discontentment and anger voiced by the fellow bloggers, there is this long term trust between the bloggers and Red Bean. This bond that is built over so many months is seeing signs of cracks. Once broken, it is going to be difficult to mend.

The constant criticism against anonymous participation by calling them sh*t-eaters who won't leave despite the stench and now this thing called "this blog is rated PG" to welcome Red Bean's brand of vulgar humor and cohorts, is going to tear away at this trust. The bloggers are having doubts. The bloggers are unhappy that their opinions and feeback are no longer valued or even accepted the way they were before. The trust is eroding away.

Do not lose this trust or it will be tough to get it back again. We are now witnessing the slide down the slippery road. No matter how good is the intention, unfortunately not many believe in these new changes in Red Bean blog, never meddle with the blogger's life feelings. Never!
